Why was black movies/TV so much more progressive in the 80s/90s?

Why was black movies/TV so much more progressive in the 80s/90s? Like, Cosby, Eddie Murphy, Will Smith, these are normal black people. Now every movie treats black people like they're some alien or some shit. Like Creed is like OMG a black guy. Straight Outta Compton is like look at these fucking black guys! In the 80s/90s, black people in media were just regular fucking people. Now they're all like walking cartoons like Samuel L Jackson. anyone else notice this shit?
>>
This is the question I've been asking for the past few years during the advent of this diversity/SJW push. They're acting like the past forty years of film and TV just don't count now. The Fresh Prince is one of the best shows of all time and has nothing to do with their race.

Basically, in the 80s and 90s black populations in the US had it really bad, the Clinton machine made deals to extend Nixon's racist drug war to further rob the vote from non violent marijuana smokers. Then to avoid the reality of heavy handed attacks on black communities, Clinton would do shit like play his sax on Arsenio Hall, the media capitulated with this, presenting blacks as if they had no real problems, everything is good here, move along.

Today, this media narrative is not as useful. With social media black americans are organizing their ire over these insane policies which both the republicans and democrats perpetuate, still only a small population they're being attacked by reactionary conservatives that want segregation or jim crow back on the books or attacked by arrogant liberals that want to hold their hand shove them into welfare holes or make their law or medical degree worthless through affirmative action.

Meanwhile, Obama is the even less of a supporter of black causes than Clinton was, as once again the real power are the corporations and their interests. Part of that interest is establishing thought-crime and a fascist political correct mandate to lump black issues with women's issues, gay issues, trans issues and make the trans issues the most important on that hierarchy (making black issues the least).

Blacks face overwhelming odds in corporate environments and are still feared by old white CEOs who remember the riots and the loss of real estate property values when they were forced to give blacks loans and homes in white neighborhoods.

So it seems like media is now addressing black issues, but it's all another corporate ruse to actually dismiss the issues as less important than homophobia or trans-phobia.

Because it doesn't.

The mainstream media of the 80s and 90s was all carefully tailored to promote the idea that everyone (in america) was the same and capable of social mobility in order to prevent communist sentiment from taking root in any cultural demographic.

Once the cold war ended, and that stopped, we started getting movies/television about what being black was really like. And it wasn't the fucking cosbys.

the media is pushing for it, but the way the new corporate political agenda presents black 'issues' only when it's incredibly superficial and masks the issues of the vast majority of non-black poor Americans. The same way they have in the past by lumping in all Europeans with the WASP elites. Irish and Italians have been spit on historically in the US since the beginning, any non-protestant group has had to struggle despite their similar skin color.

It's easy to placate and 'speak for' minorities when you are already a social elite, marginalizing poor people of all ethnic backgrounds which need help and struggle in completely unfair corporate environments by constantly making superficial black issues more important, and then superficial women's issues, and then superficial gay issues, (far more interested in how these people are depicted in FICTION than protecting their legal rights or pointing out the disparity of law enforcement [it's a hundred times more likely that a black drug user will be fully prosecuted over a white one] or even addressing the loopholes in equal opportunity laws.

Black 'issues' now serve the corporations that shit on them. The people who really lose are anyone born poor with no opportunities for work or advancement thanks to corporate greed and rampant white collar crime that is never even investigated.

I'm not talking about rights, I'm talking about how cold-war, post-civil rights era mainstream media depicted black people. With the issue being is they weren't depicted. Black actors were playing white people because the goal was to put forth the idea that american culture was homogenous and harmonious. This wasn't limited to black people either, every minority race in the US was depicted the same way. It was only once the berlin wall fell that the idea multiple cultures can exist in the same geopolitical entity was allowed to be expressed.

>>64585380
actually blacks in Africa fall under only four ethnic backgrounds and their population is far far less than Europe, China, South America.

Due to never having a lot of people in Africa in the first place, the resources were not as exploited, so many different corporations are struggling to say, own the water, the diamonds, the gold, and the lumber. It's simple numbers, there isn't enough black people in Africa to actually fight the clandestine rabble rousing of other nations stirring the pot so they can buy up those precious resources cheap.

Burn the town down, buy up the property for half the cost. It's way corporations do. And no one gives a fuck about Africa.

If you're born rich, none of your other born factors are gunna matter: you could be retarded, black, gay, a woman and still get the opportunity to lay off Ten thousand blue collar workers in order to buy another McMansion or yacht.

Now if you're born with nothing the same thing applies, it doesn't matter what else you are if you have no money. You're fucked. You could be beautiful, German (the most populous ethnic European background) Protestant, intelligent, strong, or charismatic and none of it fucking matters. You're still fucked. No mom or dad to sign your FASFA or co-sign for an apartment or a loan? Best you can do is one day own a minivan and live in a Wal Mart parking lot with no toilet and not running water.

Where your race/gender/looks/intelligence matters is in middle class, and it's a big distraction that makes you one insignificant rung above others. That's what the super elite want, for people to argue over race and lookism rather than be ambitious enough to sell their stock short and make their own real money.

That's absolutely incorrect.

In America every white person is a mix of various European ancestries (mostly Irish, German, Italian, and English), and they are fairly unified culturally and ethnically in this country.

In Europe, the EU, despite having issues, has largely been a success.... and having lived in Europe for a few years I recognized a sense across the continent that they see themselves proudly as European.

Both Europe and America are a success because of the intelligence and ingenuity of their people.

Africa is not a success, and honest people understand why.

This right here is the problem. Any black who doesn't act like a piece of shit gets called an uncle tom and is alienated by the rest of the black community. When they start encouraging each other to be respectable and stop acting like someone isn't "black enough" if they don't act like a hoodrat, then things can start getting better for them. Acting like there's anything whiety can do to make this happen is bullshit. It has to come from within the community itself.

I blame Tyler Perry and UPN's black shows for polluting the market.

Born in 1990. I grew up on stuff like Kenan & Kel, Cousin Skeeter, The Parent Hood, and Hangin with Mr. Cooper. I grew up in Colorado and rarely encountered anyone black until I went to college in Cali.

I had this perception that black Americans were like anyone else in my home county. They dealt with bigotry for decades but were pulling themselves out of it with the younger generation.

Hell my first exposure to a live-action superhero was MANTIS on Fox. I saw a disabled scientist who became a techno vigilante first and then a black man.

Now my views have warped over the years thanks to going out into the real world and how modern media spins things. Especially those Black Lives Matter protests on college campuses. Glad I graduated before that shit happened.

To cap it off, there was this great episode of Homicide: Life on the Streets where this white bus driver hit a Jamaiccan woman and he got the shit kicked out of him by a black mob. A black detective argued with his white partner over what went down. The white cop automatically thought it was a racial issue while his partner pointed out that it might appear that way, but identifying it prematurely muddied the waters. Treating is as simply a race issue ultimately downplays what might have happened.

Turns out the Jamaiccan woman was partly at fault for getting hit because her upbringing didn't anticipate the pattern of US traffic. And she woke up in the hospital feeling awful for putting the driver at risk. The driver was a hardass but he wasn't a Stormfront bastard. It was all a massive clusterfuck that spiraled out of control.

You can never get an insightful episode like this in today's toxic environment. It's always chalked up to a race thing when other mitigating factors could be at play.
>>
>>64588212
That's part of the problem, yes. But there are two other parts that I think are not necessarily their fault and I don't think will ever be fixed.

One - IQ. The average IQ for blacks in America is 85 (in Africa it's 70....the same IQ as Brenden Dassey). This is genetic, and it's unfortunately not "curable."

Two - Intermarriage. Despite being heavily pushed, miscegenation is just not happening. White women don't want black men as spouses. And white men aren't interested in black women either. This fact keeps them as an isolated group. Again, I don't see this one changing either.

So, we have what we have now....massive trillion dollar intervention into the economy to (more or less) take care of black people.

Not really, at all. Black people weren't even unusual in mainstream boxing when the original Rocky was made. The main character in Creed is the son of a world-famous boxer from that era. Nobody makes it weird. "Creed" was refreshingly un-concerned with social politics, it was just a good boxing movie
>>
>>64588742
Even though black women are considered the "least" desirable amongst demographics, there are far more white men marrying black women than black men marrying white women.

Personally there's a certain look I don't mind in certain black women like Tatiana Ali from Fresh Prince, the one in Spartacus, that fine specimen in Game of Thrones, or Kerry Washington. But I can't stand the ones that act stereotypically black.

One of the smartest and beautiful girls I met in undergrad was this Surinamese chick in my Chem lab. She was funny and sophisticated. The black girls thought she was stuck up because she held herself as a proper woman.

Funny how you can always point the finger at the media. When blacks kill once or in masses. If whites kill once or in masses. Left and right always bend and twist what the media does to fit their worldview and bias.

> Utopia

No where on Earth is a Utopia. But relative to Africa, the Middle East, South America, and South Asia ....Europe and The US are as close as you get to paradise on Earth. That's why inferior minorities move to our countries because they are genetically incapable of building their own first world nations. Anyone who has thrown off the shackles of the Social Religion knows that this is true.

> 50% minority police force

Here in NYC where I live the police force is 50% minority. And they had to desperately lower their standards in order to make that happen.

And the national media absolutely protects blacks.

Why is there never an honest dialogue on this topic? Both sides are correct. Systemic racism is real and so are dindus. They both create each other. That being said, if I had to pick a side, I'd say my hatred for whites goes beyond my hatred for blacks. Whites would rather defend/forgive a scumbag that presents himself well than support an honorable man who embraces his flaws. Don't get me wrong, there are people of all races that do that shit, it 's just extremely prevalent in white "culture." All races are largely dictated by sociopaths, but the vast majority of whites I've met seem to embrace sociopathy under the guise of "acceptance." It's no wonder the jews are so god damn powerful.

Honest Dialouge??

Here you go:

White men invented the Internet, television, radio, cars, airplanes, mapped the human genome, developed M-theory in physics, built a space ship and flew it to the fucking moon. Cured polio, built New York City, built Hollywood, wrote every worthwhile book ever, invented the printing press, discovered the Big Bang
Black men live in chaos and poverty in every single country they inhabit (without white people to take care of them). They have added almost nothing of value to the human pantheon.

White male average IQ: 105
Black male average IQ: 80

Black men who abandon their kids: 80% of the fuckng time

That's not an honest dialogue. Unless I am to infer that blacks are simply inferior and should not be considered humanly, all you did was throw stats at me.

I think that's more a result of their position in society. Like you said you've met more honorable and criminal blacks.

I've considered it and it's simply not the case. That being said, some parts of the U.S. are worse than others so I shouldn't generalize as much. If i were to get as specific as possible, I'd say that "good" whites seem to be more concerned with morals and "good" blacks seem to be more concerned with ethics. Imo ethics trump morals.

Only just realizing that the reason a lot of white people think so many black people are bad actors is because they have learned from a young age to be immune to our pain.

If they can laugh about, mock, co-opt, ignore and rationalize our real life, real-time deaths and suffering because they don’t think we are worthy of their pity, compassion, or protection or because they believe we “always play the victim” then a black actor… Even one working their asses off… isn’t ever going to resonate with them.

It’s not that there aren’t good black actors. It’s that the audience doesn’t care what happens to them.

Very good point. First honest response I've ever gotten.

>But how many blacks have you met with the means or position to spin the news in their or their peoples favor and the out of the ones who do fit that criteria how many do you think are really honest about the things they say or report?

I tend to judge stuff more on the micro. I don't care what people in positions of power do as much as I care what the people under them do. Whites seem to be more accepting of assholes lording over them and will even turn into uncle tom (in a socioeconomic sense) if you dare challenge said assholes. I've seen very few blacks do that. That being said, you do have a point attached to your point in that poorer, less powerful whites might be conditioned to support the social hierarchy because 'their people' are at the helm. Regardless, to paraphrase Muhammad Ali, I've never been called nigger by a Vietnamese guy. I'm not black, I just work in tech with a lot of jews and system racism is painfully obvious. A lot of the jews I've been working with have been taught from a young age that it's ok to lie, cheat, and steal as long as they stick to social scripts. A lot of the whites that serve under them have been taught from a young age to sacrifice self respect to get ahead. Meanwhile my black friends are trapped in the ghetto because they have a chinese finger trap on their minds regarding ethics.

>C. Arrest Rates For Minor Crimes

>The Bureau of Justice has done their own analysis of this issue and finds it’s more complicated. For example, all of these “equally likely to have used drugs” claims turn out to be that blacks and whites are equally likely to have “used drugs in the past year”, but blacks are far more likely to have used drugs in the past week – that is, more whites are only occasional users. That gives blacks many more opportunities to be caught by the cops. Likewise, whites are more likely to use low-penalty drugs like hallucinogens, and blacks are more likely to use high-penalty drugs like crack cocaine. Further, blacks are more likely to live in the cities, where there is a heavy police shadow, and whites in the suburbs or country, where there is a lower one.

>When you do the math and control for all those things, you halve the size of the gap to “twice as likely”.

>The Bureau of Justice and another source I found in the Washington Post aren’t too sure about the remaining half, either. For example, anecdotal evidence suggests white people typically do their drug deals in the dealer’s private home, and black people typically do them on street corners. My personal discussions with black and white drug users have turned up pretty much the same thing. One of those localities is much more likely to be watched by police than the other.

>Finally, all of this is based on self-reported data about drug use. Remember from a couple paragraphs ago how studies showed that black people were twice as likely to fail to self-report their drug use? And you notice here that black people are twice as likely to be arrested for drug use as their self-reports suggest? That’s certainly an interesting coincidence.

TV at the time was trying to guide african americans to act more civil and become good workers to contribute to american society. They figured that maybe TV would be a good way to indoctrinate the masses into having a decent culture that was white but they could still take pride in being black yet having a white culture.

They showed blacks as being people who were just like whites. They love their families they work hard and you should just be a good person in general. It was a more simple time and they usally didn't make a characters character revolve around their skin color yet we can still relate to characters like will because maybe you went through something similar.

Simple: we started to all come together more and feel less hatred, so the kikes switched tactics.

I want some more explanation on this. What do you mean by this, and what evidence do you have for it being true.

The late 80s-early 00s were a time of almost complete optimism. The Soviet Union teetered and collapsed and America was firmly on top of the world. Young Americans were raised with so much care, and so much security and so much hope for the future. Like, the worst things that probably happened around that time were, like, Mogadishu '93 and Rodney King (now we have Rodney King-level rioting every few months) We just had so much to look forward to, and the shows we watched reflected this.

Now, two wars, $19,000,000,000,000 of debt and an economic recession that we may never escape later, people don't have a reason to be optimistic. But we're very resentful, and very angry, and we're looking for things to blame all the time, in every aspect of life. Even the shows we watch now are filled with cynical, bitter characters. Breaking Bad, Daredevil, Game of Thrones, this trend of 'comedies' where everyone is just so fucking sullen all the time.

You know what, guys? I don't think Americans will ever be truly happy again. Nationally and internationally, we'll never be as free from anxiety and worry and opposition as we were back in that time.

Remember old action movies? Commando? Predator? Aliens? All had black characters that have more characteristics than just being black.

Now it's just trying to shove in as much diversity as possible, even if it doesn't make sense or the writers don't know what to actually do with it. Which, ironically, is actually racist, putting a black person in your movie just for the sake of being black and that's all they are.

>Once the cold war ended, and that stopped, we started getting movies/television about what being black was really like. And it wasn't the fucking cosbys.

I don't know if you're black or one of those deluded liberals but there's no pleasing people like you.

Prior to shows like The Jeffersons, The Cosby Show, A Different World, and The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, there were shows like like Good Times and Sanford and Son.

People complained about Good Times and Sanford and Son because it implied that black people could only live in ghettoes and junkyards and could never be shown as successful people.

OK. The Cosby Show and The Fresh Prince of Bel-air show black people as very successful, fairly wealthy, highly-educated people and the shows were good. And people like you complain that Cosby and Fresh Prince are not what black life is like.

Should we go back to showing black people in ghettoes? Remember, these are sitcoms so if it's a really depressing show that only ever shows poverty, crime, etc., no one is going to want to watch it.

Quincy Jones was an executive for Fresh Prince so it's not clear to me what reasonable must be done to silence the critics. (I know the unreasonable thing: Everybody lives in a ghetto, is hooked on drugs, has venereal diseases, does poor in school, and gets into trouble with the cops all the time. People in the gutter, rather than pull themselves out of the gutter would be much happier if everyone were pulled into the gutter.)

One final thing: being white is not like Leave It to Beaver or Family Ties. I'm saying this as an American and I'm not even close to being white!

You're 100% wrong on that. I'm old enough that I've seen the changes in the U.S. Back in my salad days, black people in the U.S. were much darker colored than they are today.

Those light-colored black people have very recently (last one or two generations) had at least one Caucasian ancestor.

I really don't think it's the idea of being unique that's driving this. The ideology of race not mattering is liberal in that it tries to bring people excluded from a social system in, but it's not really progressive, as it doesn't suggest that the same social system should be changed or will be changed by their inclusion. A black person or a woman are more likely to become CEOs now, but only so long as they run the business in the same way as everyone previous. Government is more diverse than it was before, but it sure as hell hasn't changed policy much, financial laws and foreign policy hasn't changed.
The former mode lets new people in, so long as they play by the old rules.
The new mode of progressivism, as grating as it is, does at the very least want the rules to change.

This is why the Baltimore protests had at least a grain of validity in them: the contrarian view was that it couldn't be a race thing because most of the cops were black. But really the protest had little to do with individuals, but rules and institutions instead, the idea that simply including more black people in the police force doesn't get to the root of the problem on its own.

I'm one of the few people on /tv/ who remembers Benson which starred a black butler who eventually became governor by the final season.

Never saw it but I know what it is.

OP really raised an interesting point on how Hollywood seemed to treat black Americans as "The Other" after the 90's. In 80's movies, black Americans could be the friends, partners, allies, etc. of white Americans. Race issues were there, but they'd learn to get past it. Like 48 Hours for instance. Eddie Murphy played a smooth-talking black convict yet he was so likable and heroic with Nick Nolte.

Look at the 2 80's Lethal Weapons. Danny Glover was comfortably middle class and hard-working. He had a boat to fish, lived in a good neighborhood, and was a respected member of the force.

Now, shows are either white as fuck or they ham-fist blacks as glorified tokens. There's nothing natural about character interaction and set-up anymore.

This is really sophomoric stuff.

I take it you've never lived in a city. I lived in Atlanta for a few years, and NYC for 10. The truth.......Blacks are rioting because they have literally nothing to do. They have no fathers, no future, no past, no present, no jobs, no education, no work ethic, most are (at least) partially illiterate, have terrible diets, ..most have below average IQs, many will kill you for $30 bucks or a pair of shoes. It is truly tragic ...and yet there are no easy answers on how to fix it.

People who worship the Social Religion will have you believe by hating white people and raising taxes everything will get magical. But the hard truth is that that is all bullshit. It's a fake as any other religion.

>>64609886
I'm left leaning and I have to agree with this.

My ideas are too outdated compared to the lunacy that I see today. I'm of the Burger King Kids Club generation where diverse people can get together and be friends.

I mean, fuck, look at Ghostwriter. That's a show that can NEVER be done today nor would kids appreciate it. Especially with the advent of smartphones and WiFi. It had a multi-racial cast in Brooklyn starring a black kid, 2 Latino siblings, a Vietnamese, and a white girl. They added another black kid, a white guy, and another Hispanic.

Shit, my older sister read The Babysitters Club. That came out in the late 1980's and it was diverse as fuck with white girls and a Japanese chick. Then they added a black girl, a fat white girl, a Southern guy, and even a Jew.

Nowadays, it's all about who gets to whine about whose more oppressed.

OP isn't talking about that shut.

I do live in the city, and I'm not denying that they lead crap lives and do crap things, I just think that the former often causes the latter.
I don't even know what you're talking about in the last line, I daresay that it's projection. I said nothing about hating white people or raising taxes either, what I said was that "inclusiveness" doesn't necessarily change societies on its own, and instead promotes assimilation a lot of the time when assimilation is not the right thing to do. That, and that current progressivism has more to do with systems and institutions than it has to do with individuals, which may not be a bad thing.

Also, "there are no easy answers" means nothing at all. Nobody ever said anything about ease. Hell, I didn't even give any answers of my own. Carting out this phrase in front of difficult problems doesn't encourage complex answers, and I'm pretty sure you know that. It only serves to shoot down whatever is proposed at that instant without the need of qualifying it or proposing an alternative.

>>64610127
The one thing I've noticed about black Americans is that they have no real sense of solidarity compared to Latin Americans, Asians, Africans straight from the continent, etc.

Other groups will stick together, build up their neighborhoods, look out for one another, etc. But blacks are murderous toward one another. And a black celebrity or business magnate might donate some money to local programs or some enveloping black American charity, but nothing really vested like other ethnics do.
>>
>>64584582
Cause movies/tv shows in the 90s were actually progressive it had shows and that actually changed how black people were depicted on camera and told a story from a black person's POV people of all races enjoy.

The problem today is studios aren't showing progression in film they're pandering to the pseudo-intelligent people who are too lazy to fight for change but still want to feel good about themselves without searching for knowledge. That's why most black protagonist and supporting cast are so bland now cause god forbid giving a black person a distinct personality and making them stand out individually is racist.

Also people are taking the internet seriously and judging race relations on what people say online which is the dumbest thing to do.

it's not 'white' culture, that's Emersonian philosophy popularized early in American history, supporting Protestant work ethics with the delusional idea that the world is perfect and that only a few bad apples are spoiling the barrel. Get rid of them, and people thrive as natural emphatic leaders and boot-strapping self reliant heroes.

As for the "all cultures are guided by the sociopaths that dominate them" thing, yes and no. If we consider Satre on the subject, he believed culture was dominated by 'adventurers' who are people with the will to do what they please, generally not wishing harm on others but willing to let their end justify their means. These adventurers are feared by the hand wringers, the navel gazers who are afraid of their own freedom. As a form of sympathetic magic, they try to serve these adventurers as sophists who excuse their behavior and write 'laws' that separate 'ordinary' people from the people who dare.

The adventurers generally don't care HOW the people are subjugated, as long as they get their glory, so the sycophants who run the show design society under laws that make sense to them. All culture is the blind leading the blind. Basic existential philosophy.

>When were Italians never not white? They were hated because of their nationality, not their race.

Italians were considered "colored" when they first arrived, they weren't considered fully white until the 30s, and prejudice against them didn't completely fade until the 60s or 70s. Same goes for the Irish when they first arrived here. Hell, in the early days of the United States literally anyone who wasn't of pure English descent was considered non-white (with a handful of exceptions).

>Ben Franklin quote:

>"Which leads me to add one Remark: That the Number of purely white People in the World is proportionably very small. All Africa is black or tawny. Asia chiefly tawny. America (exclusive of the new Comers) wholly so. And in Europe, the Spaniards, Italians, French, Russians and Swedes, are generally of what we call a swarthy Complexion; as are the Germans also, the Saxons only excepted, who with the English, make the principal Body of White People on the Face of the Earth."-Benjamin Franklin

seems to me that in the late 80's-mid 90's a strong family and social structure was still promoted. you had a bunch of family shows about functional families.

You had Full House for example, that despite the single father and mostly male household, still had a fairly functional family, with Rebecca filling the mother role anyway

then stuff like Family Matters and Fresh prince, that showed BLACK functional families. Family matters is probably the better example here. the father is a cop, and thats as middle class law abiding as it gets, and it follows fairly standard family issues, and occasionally a race issue or two.

Fresh prince was interesting because it mixed that up. you had Will who was sort of the "average" black young male, getting into trouble in a rough neighborhood, and well you know the song, he gets sent to his rich, educated Judge uncle to shape up.

my point being It wasnt just a black thing, I think that was just a happenstance of the general trend at the time. the 80's loved dysfunctional families, but the late 80's-mid 90's actually pushed functional families and normalcy. There's a reason that the 90's could be considered 50's 2.0, its because the values that were being pushed were mostly traditional family values and shit. family TV was also slightly lighter and you had lots of campy as fuck tv. Also the 90's were an optimistic time because we were living in a good economy, and around the corner from the turn of the millennium, so entertainment reflected people's optimism about the future

then 9/11 broke us, and the economy tanked, all the jobs left thanks to stuff nobody paid as much attention to as they should have in the 90's, etc etc, shit got worse and worse, and the media reflects that too, as well has culture having backlashed against conservatism and the war, just like it did during vietnam, and so we are currently in the neo-hippie/antiwar movement, and that is seeing backlash now, and will eventually swing back the other way
